[QUOTE="TMR, post: 424040, member: 5819"] A guy can always skip right to the end and get an Edge, but you really should start off with something that will teach you the basics. The 7mm WSM or 7Rem Mag will allow you to shoot alot and not burn out the barrel before hunting season. Use 180gr Bergers and you will be set. Buy the best scope you can afford, remember, you can always use it again on the next rifle. The same thing goes for the mounts and rings...use quality. A super accurate rifle means nothing if you can't see the target or the scope won't track correctly. Do it right the first time and use a Jewel trigger. You will thank me for it later. Once you try one, you will want one on every rifle from that point foward. Contrary to popular belief, they run fine in field conditions. I have had my glock not cyle in tactical matches, yet my Jewel went off every time and has never failed me...even in -30 degree temps. Stocks are a matter of personal preference. Feel as many as you can and see what is comfortable to you. [/QUOTE]
